Resources for Human Development (RHD) is a comprehensive, nonprofit, human services organization with headquarters in Philadelphia, PA. Founded in 1970, RHD currently supports and oversees more than 160 programs in 14 states, (working quietly behind the scenes
of many well-known programs.) Our mission is to empower people as they build the highest level of independence possible, building better lives for themselves, their families and their communities.

At RHD there are no divisive walls, no cubicles and no private offices. Our experience has shown that in a relaxed, casual atmosphere where employees have the chance to deal openly and directly with each other, the work environment is significantly better,
communications are clearer, and attitudes remain positive.
